Do platform-specific factors explain microRNA profiling disparities?
difference in low results: t(22) 0.08 (P 0.43). The introduction and enforcement of guidelines produced a dramatic reduction in the number of B12 samples processed, with testing reduced by 70% over the first year. Only 14.3% of the overall reduction was due to rejected samples, indicating that the majority of the reduction was due to compliance with the guidelines by laboratory users. The reduc...
متن کاملAcute Ischemic Heart Disease Do race-specific models explain disparities in treatments after acute myocardial infarction?
Background Racial differences in healthcare are well known, although some have challenged previous research where risk-adjustment assumed covariates affect whites and blacks equally. If incorrect, this assumption may misestimate disparities. We sought to determine whether clinical factors affect treatment decisions for blacks and whites equally. Methods We used data from the Cardiovascular Coop...
متن کاملDo differences in hospital and surgeon quality explain racial disparities in lower-extremity vascular amputations?
OBJECTIVE To understand whether racial disparities in surgery for lower-extremity arterial disease are minimized by high-quality providers, or instead, differential treatment of otherwise similar patients pervades all settings. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Black patients are substantially more likely than whites to undergo amputation rather than revascularization for lower-extremity arterial disea...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of Critical Parameters in Board Test
IN DESIGNING COMPLEX, highperformance boards, the designer must make several decisions: What surface-mount-technology (SMT) process should I use? What test escape rate is tolerable for custom ASICs (application-specific integrated circuits)? Is IEEE Std 1149.1 boundary scan necessary? What levels of board test coverage are best? If the designer failsto optimize these fundamental parameters of b...
متن کاملEffects of pre-analytical handling on selected canine hematological parameters evaluated by automatic analyzer
To assess the effects of pre-analytical handling (storage time and temperature) on selected hematological parameters, whole blood samples were collected in EDTA coated tubes from each of 30 clinically normal male adult beagle dogs. Each sample was separated in 2 aliquots, of which one was stored in ambient temperature (25 ˚C) and the other one was refrigerated (2 to 4 ˚C). Complete blood counts...
